Hi I Am New Here

[bobtheturkey]

As an avid collector of orange b&q buckets I was wondering how many you own?

[Souldarkness]

What do you use to puke in when you can't get to the bog

[Hopkirk]

I have never, and will never own an orange B&Q bucket.

I realise and are prepared to accept the fact that this means in certain parts of society I will be persona non grata.

I expect you were on his bucket list, fluff.

I have one of the rare 1937 buckets with the accidental Do It All overprint. It's so valuable I have to store it in a bank vault and only take it out for special occasions like winning the World Cup.

it's going to gather a lot of dust in the vault if you're scottish

The buckets are about 50P.. when buying a few screws, a light bulb and a paint brush the bucket can serve as a really good, reusable carrier bag.

well Lord Byron no less answered that one:

“There’s not a sea the passenger e’er pukes in, Turns up more dangerous breakers than the Euxine."


[--- - - -- ---------Euxine
Sea which every mere mortal pukes in]

I was so proud of my B & Q orange bucket, which I bought last year to carry flowers etc to flower-arranging classes, now I feel totally deflated - I obviously have a long way to go. Does anyone know if the buckets are distinguished by areas, as stamps are by country, and is there an album in which to record collections?
